[council] Action Items from GNSO Council meeting 25 September 2008

[Philippa Lawson]

CIPPIC, a member of IPJustice's cyberlaw clinic network, has found a law
grad willing to volunteer for one day/week for 10 months or so beginning in
early October on the WHOIS project, for NCUC.  I'm cc'ing him (Marko
Zatowkaniuk) with this message; if he's not already signed up to this
listserv, please add him.  We're looking forward to working with NCUC on
this project.

NCUC: 

We've got a full list of action items for the constituency to consider in
the coming weeks.  Below is a summary from Glen with links to relevant
reports.

There are three reports for us to consider and comment on, including a very
important GNSO Improvements Implementation Plan, which is expected for a
vote on 16 October.  And we need 2 volunteers for steering committees to
work on implementation.

Please consider the WHOIS Hypothesis Study Group Report as there will be a
vote on 16 October, which if any studies are to be pursued.

We also need any comments on the Geographic Regions Report by 16 October
when the GNSO Comments are expected to be finalized.  

We need volunteers for a drafting team on GNSO travel policy. 

Please send any comments or expressions of interest to volunteer for these
assignments to this list.

Thanks!
Robin

Dear Councilors,

Please note the immediate action items that arose from the Council meeting
today, Thursday 25 September 2008.

1. Council representatives are asked to forward the recommended GNSO
comments regarding the ICANN Geographic Regions report,
 http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/icann-geographic-regions-26aug08.pdf
to their respective constituencies for discussion and comment as applicable
and be prepared to finalize the GNSO comments in the Council meeting on 16
October 2008.

2. Council representatives are asked to distribute the updated draft GNSO
Improvements Implementation Plan
http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg05470.html
right away, expedite discussions in their constituencies, and be prepared to
vote on a motion at the GNSO Council meeting on 16 October 2008.

In addition constituencies should be starting the process of selecting one
representative each for the two steering committees so that the first
Steering Committee meetings can be held in Cairo.

3. Constituencies should call for volunteers for a drafting team to develop
a proposal for consideration by the Council for ICANN subsidization of GNSO
travel expenses. Volunteer's names should be sent to the Council mailing
list. Olga Cavalli and Zahid Jamil were the first two volunteers at the
meeting.

4. Councilors should forward the WHOIS Hypotheses Study Group report to
their respective constituencies ASAP for discussion and comment as
applicable in preparation for beginning the process at the Council meeting
on 16 October 2008 of deciding which, if any studies should be pursued
further.
